Premier room, Wyndham Grand South Xian

Haven't come across this name Wydnam for a long time.  When I saw this one from my hotel searching on the web, and yet it's a very new hotel in Xian.  Though it's a bit far from the city (5-7km south of the downtown, I still chose it.  The pros is the location in a newly developed area called Qu Jiang (曲江) that everything is new and clean, the cons is that it's difficult to get a taxi.  In fact, it has become an issue in China and some other cities that the call-taxi app is a bit too much that the taxi (though it's vacant), they always run to pick up passengers on apps and so selectively chose passengers.  For sure, all taxi drivers look for passengers to go to the airport.  This happens the same in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.  So sick of this kind of app being abused to this extent.
Back to the room, it's very spacious and comfy.  In considering it's just US$130 net including breakfast, it's quite a bargain.

This hotel flag is not as popular as Hilton or Marriott I think.

I believe Wyndham wouldn't wanna go after Hilton. Even Hilton itself has to rebrand their hotel name to others, because the lovely girl made "Hilton" so famous in some way.

That is true.
